Everyone is pulling short term crap because they are afraid of our election cycle right now and wanted to grab profit at the top end or cut losses.

if the young gamers start to understand how the politicians and big money are screwing up their games, maybe they'll start to pay attention and get involved

there's a movement here to rename it to invasion day to reflect that it marks the arrival of the colonialist settlers in aus, and to instead celebrate either not at all, or another date such as the 3rd of march, the day the australia act (which gave australia sovereignty and (mostly) independence from the UK) was enacted
new favourite feature of my android phone: if you hold the delete key for too long, the entire UI crashes, closing every app you had open
this feature combines really well with the tendency of the modern web to add long strings of tracking parameters to every URL
